Chapter 1396: Chapter 370: You Can Absolutely Become Our Dao Companion_5

"We don’t have any deep-seated grudges; it’s just that we’ve each chosen our own paths."

"Isn’t that right?"

"We’re not living constrained by one another; we both have our own choices. Isn’t that a very good thing? You didn’t trap me, and I didn’t trap you. We both have our own paths, and many people envy that."

Miaoyu looked at her aunt.

She had the impression that such a person existed, but it was only an impression. Perhaps her aunt visited the State Capital when she was still young, so she couldn’t fully remember what her aunt looked like. However, seeing this beautiful and captivating woman, she figured this was likely her aunt.

But no matter what, she stood by her sister: "So may I ask why you both have come to our sect?"

Qing Rou felt a pang of regret in her heart towards her two daughters, who at the moment seemed like strangers, with no emotion hidden in their eyes: "Miaoyu, don’t speak like this. I actually really like you both; I still love you."

Lanyu laughed coldly upon hearing this and protected her sister behind her back: "So you two ran off, leaving us directly in the third state. After something inexplicable happened, you disturb our lives, then act like you supposedly care. Isn’t that a bit disgusting?"

Qing Xianyi awkwardly stood between the sides, addressing Lanyu: "Lanyu, you shouldn’t talk to your mother like that. Wasn’t your mother also deceived by your father? Your father is the real bastard here."

Miaoyu furrowed her brow: "Deceived by my father? What do you mean?"

Qing Rou replied: "This is grown-up stuff; you might not understand it well. So it’s not much use saying it now."

At this moment, the atmosphere was indeed tense.

On one side were the two cultivator sisters from afar, and on the other were the two sisters growing medicinal herbs. The parties were initially irrelevant to each other but were directly bound by the mother-daughter relationship.

It was quite awkward.

Yuchi happened to arrive at this moment. He paused briefly at a distance upon seeing the situation, then walked over with a smile: "Wow, it’s lively here. What’s happening? Is there anything funny you can share with me?"

Lanyu: "Sect Leader Senior Brother."

Miaoyu: "Our Senior Brother."

Yuchi: "Mm."

He walked over to the two women and lightly patted their shoulders, signaling with his eyes that everything was okay.

Now that the situation was happening within the Ascension Gate, he, as the Sect Leader, could take care of it. Lanyu and Miaoyu stopped speaking. Usually, they were very cheerful girls, but due to this situation, they looked slightly grateful as they left.

Qing Xianyi looked at the man in front of her. His appearance was crucial, considering the heated situation a moment ago; who knows what would’ve happened: "Thank you."

Yuchi shook his head with a smile: "No need for thanks, but from the looks of things, your relationships don’t seem to be very good."

Qing Rou:

"Yes, they’re not very good. In the past, we grew too distant, so now suddenly stepping forward claiming to act with goodwill is unrealistic. If I were them, I wouldn’t acknowledge it now either."

Qing Xianyi continued her sister’s words, addressing Yuchi: "Sect Leader, could you help us out? Considering the relationship among the mother and daughters, it’s really not good. If you could help ease the tension between them, it would be a huge help."

Qing Rou didn’t speak but looked at Yuchi with eyes full of expectation and plea.

Yuchi chuckled heartily, unapologetically saying: "This matter is really up to you. I’m just an outsider."

"As an outsider, I don’t know what actually happened between you, so how can I help you without knowing the situation?"

"Should I go to the two little girls and tell them to listen to their mother?"

"Say that their mother went through a lot for them. Do you think these two completely independent girls would take the advice of me, their Sect Leader Senior Brother? Wouldn’t I become a hypocrite, inexperienced in others’ struggles, yet advising goodness?"

Yuchi’s words were frankly straightforward but reasonable. It’s your family’s situation.

The fact is, he has no idea what’s happening.

Sigh, how should he deal with this? Not knowing what happened, what if it leads to arguments or some silent conflict? What if there’s an inexplicable story between them, and as an outsider, he says something inappropriate...

In the end, it’d be a thankless effort, possibly leading to his image collapsing, so these matters he should just provide an environment. If they want to reconcile, with time, it should surely work out.
